People: Me

Duration:6-10:30 pm
Tide: turning, rising
Weather:calm sea, warm water
Bait:rag

Rigs: one rod, one hook, 120m+ out.

Results:me-1 lesser weaver, 1 small starry smooth hound

Very unproductive season only really saved by the wonderful night that was in it - large moon rising, stars, and warm water - and a couple of good knocks that I missed out on. Lost something reasonable when breakaway lead snagged on a weed bed when hauling in - suspect it was a small smooth hound.

I'd been trying out an old ABU Atlantic 484 and Ambassadeur 6000c - instead of my usual 484CS and 6500C - I'd brought back with me from the USA - first time out in Ireland - getting good casting results of 130-140 yards so or. I always suspect with Ennereilly though that's probably going out over the fish maybe?

No harm in varying the distances till you find where the fish are :wink: or alternatively fish two rods mixing it up distance wise, its amazing how 20 yards either side off where your casting into can produce fish :)
